Small Groups and Bible Studies
Small groups are an important part of life in a faith community. We need spaces in our lives where we can ask difficult questions, share life’s joys and challenges, and grow more deeply in our faith. These groups gather to encourage one another on this journey we call life. Whether it be a Bible study, life group, prayer hour, or just hanging out, we strive and encourage you to joining one of these communities.
There are few things you should know about how we are currently connecting with our small groups community. Because of COVID-19, we have transitioned all of our small groups and Sunday school gatherings to on online forum. We currently are partnering with Zoom (a video conferencing program) to ensure that you get the best experience while remotely connecting with one of small group gatherings. Depending on where you are on life’s journey, here are some virtual groups to consider:
